Chapter 69: The Land of the Trapped Dragon
After Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei killed Zhang Niujiao and his 1,000 guards on Shadow Mountain, they quickly left Shadow Mountain, and rushed to Guangzong non-stop along the way.
On the way, Zhang Fei said to the two: "Big brother, second brother, the one we killed with horn helmet seems to be a character, right?" ”
Liu Bei pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know, maybe it's just a small leader of that big army!" ”
"Forehead," Zhang Fei scratched his head and said, "No! ”
Guan Yu then spoke, "It shouldn't be a small boss, because he can actually dodge my Green Dragon Thorn in that situation, with his strength, he doesn't look like a nobody!" ”
Liu Bei said helplessly, "Whatever, today's plan is to quickly meet with the teacher!" ”
Guangzong City is built on the low plain, close to the Jizhou Prefecture Pastoral Residence Ye City, this Guangzong City is not high, there is a moat outside the city, this moat water is drawn from the Zhanghe River, is a natural barrier.
The Han flag under Guangzong City is in the sky, and Lu Zhi's military camp is located under Guangzong City, and the camp is in order.
On this day, Lu Zhi was in the big tent of the Chinese army and the Northern Army Tun Cavalry Captain Bao Hong, the Yue Cavalry Captain Wu Fu, the Changshui Captain Chongji, the Shooting Captain Wang Zifu, and the Infantry Captain Wu Lan five people discussed, as mentioned above, the status of the five schools of the Northern Army in the Han Empire is very high, although these five people are nominally captains, but the actual official positions are all at the level of generals.
Since Lu Zhi entered Jizhou, he has won seven battles and seven victories, and almost all the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou has been swept away. Only Quyang and this Guangzong City are still under the control of Taiping Dao.
Lu Zhi pointed to a place in the south of Guangzong City and said, "The thief soldier general Zhang Liang is stationed here, and Guangzong is a horn against each other, if you don't take it, Guangzong City can't be taken at all." ”
Wang Zifu looked at the location that Lu Zhi pointed to as Tai Platform, and said that this Tai Platform is not famous, but he also has another name here called Dune Palace, Wang Zifu is not a simple martial artist, although he is a martial artist but he is a famous Confucian general, so he has a lot of knowledge of ancient books, the whole territory of Guangzong is flat, the soil is generally sandy, and it is piled up into mounds everywhere, so the ancient name is Dune. During the Shang Dynasty, there was a palace annex here. According to the "Historical Records", the king of Shang built a lot of construction in the sand dunes, and built a garden platform, called the sand dune palace, which placed all kinds of birds and beasts in the sand dune palace, and also set up a wine pond meat forest, so that men and women chased the game naked, sang and drank wildly, and stayed up all night. The level of absurdity and extravagance is appalling.
In the Warring States Period, the sand dunes were the territory of the Zhao State, and the King of Zhao set up a palace here. The legend of King Wuling of Zhao Wuling, who is eloquent and strong, is located in the young son King Zhao Huiwen, who calls himself the main father. Three years later, Zhao's father left the capital Handan and traveled north to the sand dunes. His eldest son, Gongzi Zhang, competed with King Huiwen for the throne, rebelled, was defeated, and fled to the Dune Palace, where Zhao's father lived. King Huiwen sent Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui to lead troops to surround the Dune Palace and kill Gongzi Zhang. And the generation of male lord Zhao Wuling King was starved to death in the platform of this Dune Palace.
During the Great Qin Empire, Qin Shi Huang annexed the six countries, unified China, set up a county system, and the sand dunes belonged to Julu County. He went on his fifth tour and fell ill in Hiraharatsu. In July, Bingyin, who traveled to the sand dunes, fell ill and died on the platform of the Dune Palace. At that time, his youngest son Hu Hai, Prime Minister Li Si, and eunuch Zhao Gao followed. They kept their mourning secret, falsely claiming to have received the edict of the First Emperor, making Hu Hai the crown prince, and accusing the eldest son of Qin Shi Huang, Gongzi Fusu, of not being able to make meritorious contributions, causing him to commit suicide. It was a hot day, and Qin Shi Huang's body quickly stinked. In order to cover people's eyes, they loaded a lot of abalone in the car and escorted them back to the capital Xianyang before they officially mourned. Hu Hai ascended the throne as the second emperor. This also led to the end of the death of the second Qin dynasty.
A sand dune palace, three generations of male lords because of his fall, so this sand dune palace is also known as the land of the trapped dragon, and later generations of literati passed by this place and left a paragraph of famous sentences with ancient nostalgia:
The martial spirits are full of resentment in the dunes,
Zhao's name is here.
The months come and the months go to the spring and the loneliness,
The Forbidden City is still shy.
Fish and dragon stinky Zeng Zitai,
Noji Qingzhong mourns at night.
There is also a poem that says:
Idle to count the spring and autumn,
Read a cup of vicissitudes.
The native soldiers have won a hundred battles,
But it is the same as the disintegration of the piece.
Zulong hegemony car hate,
The lord's father's ambition is sad in the palace.
Only the hazy sand on the moon,
So far, I still shine on myself!
The prince frowned, the land of sand dunes is so notorious that the emperors of all dynasties have taken a detour to travel, and what is the purpose of this beam actually camping here?
In Zhou Yi's words, this Dune Palace is called the land of trapped dragons because it is a trapped dragon game, this trapped dragon game, surrounded by mountains on all sides, no wind and no water, no grass grows, and it will die.
Wang Zifu looked at Lu Zhi and said, "General, what is the purpose of this Liang general's army stationed in the land of trapped dragons?" ”
Although Lu Zhi is a Confucian disciple, he also knows the feng shui words of the Yin and Yang family, the land of trapped dragons, Lu Zhi also shook his head in confusion, but Lu Zhi continued to speak, "No matter what the intention of this Zhang Liang is, we must also take him down!" ”
While several people were discussing how to march into the army, a herald walked in from outside the big tent, and the herald knelt down on one knee and said, "General Qiyu, there are three strong men leading five hundred volunteers outside the barracks to ask for an audience."
"Oh?" Lu Zhi raised his head and said, "Have you ever reported your name?" ”
The herald said loudly: "The person who came called himself Liu Xuande of Zhuojun!" ”
"Xuande?" Lu Zhi was surprised, and then he said happily, "Hurry up, please!" ”
After the herald went down, Wu Lan in the big tent looked at Lu Zhi, who was overflowing with joy and asked suspiciously, "General, who is this Liu Xuande?" ”
Lu Zhi touched his beard and smiled, "He, he is my student in Zhuojun, this kid is both civil and military, and he is a rare talent for the empire."
Lu Zhi's words made the five lieutenants present interested, what kind of person could make Lu Zhi give such a high evaluation.
Not long after, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei walked into the big tent under the leadership of the herald, Liu Bei saw Lu Zhi standing in the middle of the big tent at a glance, and immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly, "Student Liu Bei, meet the teacher!" ”
Lu Zhi hurriedly helped Liu Bei up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xuande, the teacher wants to kill you!" Come on, come on, I'll introduce you"
Lu Zhi said while pointing to the five captains and said, "These people are all your seniors, the bearded one is Tunqi Captain Bao Hong, the thinner one is Yue Cavalry Captain Wu Fu, the slightly chubby one is Changshui Captain Chongji, the one dressed as a bachelor is the prince uniform of the Captain of the Shooting Voice, and the last one who is slightly shorter is the Infantry Captain Wu Lan."
Lu Zhi introduced the five captains to Liu Bei one by one, and after Liu Bei saluted one by one, he pointed to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei behind him and said, "These two are my brothers-in-law Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang and Zhang Fei, and Zhang Yide."
After the two saluted to everyone, Lu Zhi ordered three seats to be added to the big tent, and after Lu Zhi asked everyone to sit down, he said to Liu Bei, "Your mother's illness is cured?" ”
Liu Bei nodded and said, "Thank you teacher, my mother's health is fine."
Lu Zhi smiled and said, "That's right, you kid is a big dutiful son, you have matured a lot over the years."
Liu Bei also smiled and said, "Teacher, you are getting younger and younger."
Lu Zhi laughed heartily when he heard this: "You stinky boy is still so good at talking!" Okay, let's talk about that later, but now let's get down to business."
Everyone sat solemnly, Lu Zhi asked people to hang up the military map at this moment, and then pointed to the platform and said, "I plan to raid the platform tonight and pull out the nail of the Yellow Turban Army outside Guangzong City, what do you think?" ”
The five captains had no opinion, and they all agreed, Liu Bei looked at the Taitai platform on the military map, frowned and said, "This Taitai platform, but the Taitai platform called the land of trapped dragons?" ”
Lu Zhi nodded and said, "Not bad!" ”
Liu Bei remembered that his cheap master Zuo Ci once said: In the land of trapped dragons, there is no grass, there is a trapped dragon situation inside, and there is a big murderer under the dune platform that the old man said, one of the four ancestors of zombies! The dry fish, also known as the female fish, is the daughter of the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, formerly known as the female fish, is quite beautiful, and is also very kind. After the Great War of the Yellow Emperor Chiyou, Nulu was physically and mentally exhausted due to worrying about her father, and suffered from a serious illness. The condition of the female squire was extremely serious, and according to the sorcerers of the time, there was no cure for the female hermitage.
And when Nulu was critically ill, the three parts of the soul of Nuwa broke the seal of Nuwa and Fuxi and escaped. And this is one of the four ancient demon gods, wandering in the human world and the divine realm, and inadvertently discovered the human war, and couldn't help but play with it, taking the opportunity to cholera the world. Nuwa, who is also one of the four demon gods, naturally couldn't bear to see the Lien rob with fire, so she joined forces with Fuxi to kill the Li!
He has the strongest physique among the four demon gods, and nothing can harm his body. Even if Nuwa and Fuxi join forces, they can't hurt them in the slightest. In desperation, Fu Xi used the Bagua Array to trap Qian, and then teamed up with Nuwa to extract Qian's soul and divide it into three parts for sealing.
However, Nuwa and Fuxi underestimated Qian's strength. It didn't take long for the seal to be broken by the three souls of the Qian. In order to take revenge on Nuwa, one of the souls of the Lu secretly sneaked into the Nulu's room and took the opportunity to seize the Nulu's body. And this soul of the dragon itself is incomplete, and the incomplete soul cannot occupy the body of the female reel.
In order to seize the body of the female lu, he fused his soul with the three souls and seven spirits of the female lu. After the fusion, the female slur underwent a mutation. The woman's hair began to turn white and fall out, her real forehead became even more wrinkled, and her body began to lose moisture and became extremely dry. What's even more terrifying is that the female body's body exudes a huge amount of heat! Within miles of the nuns, the water evaporated rapidly, and the land became extremely arid.
The mutation of the female slug caused panic among the Yellow Emperor and the villagers. In desperation, the Yellow Emperor expelled the female lu and exiled the female lu to the north.
Because, wherever the female turtle goes, the lakes and rivers will evaporate clean, so the female shark is also called the dry fish. Because of this, the drought is also known as the god of drought.
Because the drought is formed after the fusion of the soul of the female and the calf, therefore, the drought fish retains part of the memory of the female fish, and because of this, in the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou, the female lu helped the Yellow Emperor repel Chiyou. However, the drought has only made this contribution to mankind.
Later, the drought was running around in the north, causing drought everywhere in the north, and many places became endless deserts. In desperation, the emperor envoy Ying Long killed the drought.
And according to Zuo Ci's old man, in the end, the Yellow Emperor did not bear to kill Nulu, but sealed her under the platform of the sand dunes of Guangzong.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei couldn't help but be a little surprised, this Zhang Liang is stationed here, is it to release the female wolf? ?
The fog is white and turbid, and the sun and moon are not shining
The drought is abusive, such as burning.
